Gray truck with black rims

What is your opinion on black rims for my truck?
Something like the American Racing Victor?
It will be with 3" body lift and 35' tires.

YAY or NAY?

Nay! I do not like them on anything but a black truck and I am still undecided on if I like them on a black truck.

Could you post a picture of your ride with the black wheels... I have viewed a few trucks with black wheels and it just did not look very good. I agree however that we are all different with our likes and dislikes. Change my mind and post some pictures of that ride with black wheels. BoB

Man,
Ive seen many Grey cars/trucks with the black wheel scheme. If they have the polished lip to give definition they will look good to great depending on your color scheme. Dont let anyone generalize black wheels and make you change your mind. Click here and check out my Mach 1 in my gallery and you tell me if they look good or not. https://www.f150online.com/galleries....cfm?num=11969

I dont know how to put the pics up here in this thread so you will have to clicky and visit.

Later
Mike
